Why is Planning called tribal and the Phoenix individual, in circuitry terms?

Because of where the gates live. The 37-40 is tribal, the bargain channel of the Ego and Solar Plexus, and 9 and 16 are collective and logical, so the old background is tribal plus collective: agreements plus shared patterns. The new cross is built from 55, an individual gate in the Solar Plexus, and from 34-20, which belongs to the Integration group, the oldest and most individual structure in the graph. The 59 has a tribal function, bonding, but Ra says it is less tribal than it looks, because what it really carries is the potential for reproduction. There is one more structural point he makes about the mutation itself: it moves through individual and tribal circuitry and leaves the collective out entirely. So the collective is not the target of the change, it is simply no longer the background.

This is not a fact, not medical advice and not a promise of healing. It is part of the cosmology Ra Uru Hu, who founded Human Design, left behind, and nobody knows exactly how it will unfold.
